Sometimes, when you're under pressure from the defence you'll also need to get the ball away as soon as you've received it.

This drill can help you do both.

SETTING UP: Team up with two other players, and number yourselves one to three. You'll need a hockey stick each and one ball between you.

AIM: Running up the pitch, player one makes an accurate pass to player two who receives the ball with one touch and then passes to player three with the second touch.

PRACTICE: Pass the ball back along the line in the opposite direction. You can also swap positions so that each player has a turn to be in the middle.
